mod_rewrite causing 404 on index.php

    Hello,

    I´m having a hard time getting WordPress to work with mod_rewrite, I´ll try to explain the situation…

    I have this domain (http://pontomidia.com.br/) which I share with 3 other friends, each of us has a directory with our names (e.g. http://pontomidia.com.br/rafael/) where we run our portfolios, blogs, etc.

    I´ve recently acquired a new domain name (http://rafael-lueder.com/) which redirects to our existing domain. I´m using a php redirect to take my new domain directly to my directory and I´m also using mod_rewrite to hide the directory name in the address bar of browsers, so that

    http://rafael-lueder.com/rafael/blog/ (which looks redundant)

    in the address bar will appear as

    http://rafael-lueder.com/blog/

    And here´s my problem. While the administration interface of WordPress and the blog itself are accessible I keep getting a 404 for /blog/index.php when trying to click a permalink, comments, categories or the about page links (you can see it here http://rafael-lueder.com/blog/). I´ve tried changing “WordPress address” and “Blog address” under “Options – General” but had no success.

    Any ideas of how I can fix this? Thanks.

    Well, after many trials and errors it’s now solved.

    Below my .htaccess files, the first one in the root of my domain the second one in wordpress directory.

    I also had to set “WordPress address” and “Blog address” under “Options – General” to http://rafael-lueder.com/blog

    I had a lot of help from richardk at http://forum.modrewrite.com/

    <IfModule mod_rewrite.c>
    RewriteEngine on
    RewriteCond %{HTTP_HOST} ^(www\.)?rafael-lueder\.com$ [NC]
    RewriteCond %{DOCUMENT_ROOT}/rafael%{REQUEST_URI}/ -d
    RewriteRule [^/]$ %{REQUEST_URI}/ [R=301,L]
    RewriteCond %{ENV:REDIRECT_STATUS} ^$
    RewriteCond %{HTTP_HOST} ^(www\.)?rafael-lueder\.com$ [NC]
    RewriteRule ^(.*)$ /rafael/$1 [QSA,L]
    </IfModule>

    <IfModule mod_rewrite.c>
    RewriteEngine on
    RewriteBase /rafael/blog/
    RewriteCond %{REQUEST_FILENAME} !-f
    RewriteCond %{REQUEST_FILENAME} !-d
    RewriteRule . /rafael/blog/index.php [L]
    </IfModule>
